Feeling drained, overwhelmed and torn between achieving external measures of success versus personal fulfillment? Do you feel like you're going through the motions climbing the corporate ladder yet it's not what you'd dreamed your life would be like?  Dr. Jonathan Marion is an award winning cultural anthrolopology professor, author, speaker and health coach who feels how you show up in life is the key to living a deeply meaningul and fulfilling life. He's currently overlapping his transformational coaching, dancing and academic work to help people live, connect and communicate authentically. In this episode of The Health Fix Podcast, Dr. Jannine Krause interviews Dr. Jonathan Marion on his process of helping clients become truly present so they can lead more rewarding meaningful lives.

What You’ll Learn In This Episode:

Why keeping a “should journal” gives you a “could” choice to change the situation
How to use your senses to be in the present and connect deeper
Why - when things don’t turn out the way they “should have” it’s seen as a threat to your nervous system 
The power of changing how you show up in each situation
How what you’ve learned from your culture shapes your thought processes
Learning to choose to view the “shoulds” as how “could” I do something when you’re feeling frustrated
Dance as a moving meditation to be present in the moment
